BLAST release BLAST Bounty Summer 2026 talent including four NA names

BLAST have revealed the talent lineup for their upcoming BLAST Bounty Summer 2026, which is scheduled to run from July 21st to August 2nd. The lineup consists of eight names, including four familiar NA faces, while the event is also set to mark the return of James Bardolph and Daniel "ddk" Kapadia to BLAST for the first time in close to seven years, with the duo last working BLAST Pro Series: Moscow 2019 before significantly scaling back the number of CS events they both worked until relatively recently.

On the NA front we are well represented with Alex "⁠Mauisnake⁠" Ellenberg and Donald "⁠voo⁠" Parkhurst sitting on the analyst desk while Conner "⁠Scrawny⁠" Girvan and Mohan "⁠launders⁠" Govindasamy are set to be the second casting duo for the Maltese LAN.

The event will feature an online stage with Wildcard, M80, and Liquid in attendance, as teams fight for one of eight spots in the LAN stage which is set to take place at the BLAST Arena Studios in Attard, Malta.
